Note: The following information
applies to educational support staff who
work in DHHS schools and institutions.

If you are a 10-month or 11-month employee (not a
"115C educator), your insurance premiums will be handled
in a special way to make sure that your insurance coverage
continues while you are off the regular payroll.

You will have double premiums deducted
at the end of the school term for your State
Health Plan and any flex benefits you have (optional insurance
that is deducted under
the
pre-tax program).

If your last month is
May, the double deductions will be taken out
of your April and May paychecks for July and August.

If your last
month is June,
the double deductions will be taken out of
your May paycheck only for August.

You will be responsible to send in the premiums for
any other insurance you have that is not covered under
the State Health Plan or the flex benefit plan. The
list below includes most of the deductions and insurance
companies that you will have to pay directly (if you
have any
of these benefits). Be sure to check with your supervisor
or HR rep if you need more information on how to handle
these payments over the summer months:

401K Plan and 457(b) (Prudential) Plan

ARAG Legal Plan (formerly Legalwise)

Bankers Security Life (Reliastar)

Colonial Life

Kanawha Insurance (Dental)

Professional Insurance Company (disability coverage
through Pierce Insurance)
